DirectorsOlga Stolpovskaya, Dmitry Troitsky

1998
11 min
Documentary

Based on an act of vandalism by artist Alexander Brener, the film tells the story of an event that shocked the conscience of enlightened Europe: Brener painted a green dollar sign on Kazimir Malevich’s "White Cross." While Brener’s action sparked fierce debates among art critics and legal experts, the filmmakers declare the “joint” symbol of Brener and Malevich a cult icon of 1998.
